people might question the relationship between occupational therapy and physical therapy. Some think the professions are the same or that the terms are the same; there are a few different therapies for people who have been faced with a stroke‚ a disability‚ or any injury that has caused physical restrictions. The methods and techniques used in these therapies can overlap with each other‚ but both occupational therapy and physical therapy covers all aspects of the patient’s health including their physical

During muscular exercise‚ blood vessels in the muscles dilate and blood flow is increased in order to increase the available oxygen supply‚ to allow the muscles required to function properly. Up to a point‚ the available oxygen is sufficient to meet the energy needs of the body. However‚ when muscular exertion is very great‚ oxygen cannot be supplied to muscle fibres fast enough‚ and the aerobic breakdown of pyruvic acid cannot produce all the ATP required for further muscle contraction. During

Oxygen Requirements of Bacteria BACKGROUND The GasPak system is useful for culturing anaerobic bacteria on standard microbiological media because the GasPak generates carbon dioxide and hydrogen. The hydrogen will combine with oxygen present in an anaerobic jar to produce water. This system can reproducibly attain oxygen levels in the parts per million range if used correctly. This is the best method for determining the oxygen requirements of unknown organisms. A candle jar is useful

Billick September 4th‚ 2010 Ventilation and Oxygen Consumption Results Oxygen Concentration Oxygen concentration in water can be altered by the conditions it is exposed to. For instance cold water has a higher oxygen concentration than warm water. In our experiment we were able to observe the change in oxygen concentration of water at two different temperatures (15C and 25C) with a fish in each environment. Our results proved that the starting oxygen concentration of the cold water was higher

of reflection as a template for my essay to enable me to analyse this situation. For the purpose of confidentiality I am renaming my patient Jim (Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC) 2008). Jim is a 69 year old man‚ attending the pulmonary rehabilitation programme (PRP). He also has chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and is prescribed short burst oxygen therapy (SBOT) to alleviate his symptoms. The World Health Organisation (WHO) (2013) defines COPD as a lung disease interfering with air

I took care of N. 68 year’s old female who was admitted to the Medical-Subacute unit for COPD exacerbation treatment. When the patient’s COPD exacerbation was treated‚ she wanted to go out for a smoke. The patient was a long time smoker prior to admission and has decided to continue smoking‚ despite encouraging. Moreover‚ the patient argued that smoking helps her to cope with depression and socialize with people. Therefore‚ going outside the hospital building for smoking makes her more physically

This brief report will discuss an interview in which existential therapy is used with an individual who is leaving prison and re-joining the general population. There were various positive behavioural factors exhibited by the interviewer. The interviewer seemed to be listening intently‚ and asking for elaboration on questions. With many of the answers he received‚ the interviewer asked what it meant to the client. He acknowledged that the client would be facing challenges as he re-joined society

When listening to the patient I would expect to hear crackles and wheezing. 2. Normal oxygen saturation is 95% to 100%. 3.Since the patient does have a history of diabetes and asthma‚ he has a higher risk of contracting viruses due to the fact that diabetes lowers your immune response‚ and asthma causes your airway to become more sensitive.

Determining the Percent Oxygen in the Air INTRODUCTION: Recent tragedies in coal mines have exemplified the importance for us humans to breathe an adequate amount of oxygen if we are to survive. But what amount of oxygen is adequate? How can we know the amount of oxygen present in what we consider fresh air? The purpose of this experiment was to determine the percent oxygen typically present in air. The conclusion of the test suggested that the concentration of oxygen in the lab at the time
